Well, for one thing, 2010 was not the non-stop roller coaster that 2009 was. Sure, 2010 didn't have the excitement of a book release or lots of travel, but 2010 didn't have the awful, heart-wrenching lows, either. (Thank goodness.)
What did 2010 have? A job I liked, making some fantastic new friends (hi
cmpriest and
mauraanderson!), getting to visit
pix_kristin,
noisedesign,
queeniex, and
donnaricci, having
kambriel and Curse stay with us, SteamCon and all of that wackiness, and a general upswing in creativity for me. (That upswing also came with an increase in "Oh God oh God, WORDS GONE CAN'T WRITE IIEEE!" panic, but I'm getting better at managing those.)
2010 also some not-so-awesome stuff, like some issues with the house, and multiple rounds of the Plague. But in larger picture, nothing hugely worrying or "DOOM, DOOOOOOOM!", so that's good.
2011! I want to write more often, and with more confidence. I'm planning on sending off a proposal and sample chapters to my agent for a kinda-secret project. I want to update GCS more frequently, write more reviews, and work on more fiction. In other words, stop dithering about writing and actually, y'know, write.
2011 looks like it will be a year of concerts for me: I've already got tickets for 3 different shows (Emilie Autumn and two MCR shows). And events! I'm scheduled for 2 events in January, an event in March, I'm planning on going to SteamCon in October, I am hoping hoping hoping that we can make it to Bats Day in May, and visit the UK. Will we be able to find the budget and time for all of this? Who knows, but there's no harm in trying.
So! I hope all of you have a very good 2011! May it be kind and creatively fulfilling for ALL of us.
